research 013 Prostaglandin D2 enhances testosterone metabolism by ROS-mediated altered redox potential in keratinocytes
Prostaglandin D2 increases testosterone production in skin cells through a process involving reactive oxygen species, which could be a new target for treating hair loss and other skin conditions driven by testosterone.
research The anticonvulsant effects of progesterone and its metabolites
5alpha-DHP may be a safe, effective treatment for certain seizures without causing sedation.
research Palmitoylethanolamide Stimulation Induces Allopregnanolone Synthesis in C6 Cells and Primary Astrocytes: Involvement of Peroxisome-Proliferator Activated Receptor-α
PEA boosts allopregnanolone production and reduces oxidative stress in brain cells.
research New ester derivatives of dehydroepiandrosterone as 5α-reductase inhibitors
New compounds may help treat prostate issues without affecting androgen receptors.
research Expression of NAD+dependent 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase and protection of prostaglandins in human hair follicle
A substance called compound-1 could help increase hair growth by maintaining prostaglandin levels in hair follicles.
research The biodisposition and hypertrichotic effects of bimatoprost in mouse skin
Bimatoprost increases hair growth in mice without breaking down into other substances.
research A high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry assay of the androgenic neurosteroid 3α-androstanediol (5α-androstane-3α,17β-diol) in plasma
Testosterone increases 3α-androstanediol levels, which can be blocked by finasteride.
research Prostaglandin D2 Uses Components of ROS Signaling to Enhance Testosterone Production in Keratinocytes
Prostaglandin D2 increases testosterone production in skin cells through a process involving reactive oxygen species, and antioxidants may help treat hair loss.
research Involvement of neurosteroids in the control of prolactin secretion in sheep under basal, stressful and pregnancy conditions
Neurosteroids affect prolactin levels in sheep differently depending on stress and pregnancy conditions.
research Prostaglandin metabolism in human hair follicle
Human hair follicles can make and process prostaglandins, which may affect hair growth.
research Progesterone Pretreatment Enhances Serotonin-Stimulated BDNF Gene Expression in Rat C6 Glioma Cells Through Production of 5α-Reduced Neurosteroids
research Prostate-Sparing Effects in Primates of the Potent Androgen 7α-Methyl-19-Nortestosterone: A Potential Alternative to Testosterone for Androgen Replacement and Male Contraception1
MENT could be a better option than testosterone for male hormone therapy and birth control because it works well at lower doses and has fewer side effects on the prostate.
research Combined oral contraceptives promote androgen receptor and oestrogen receptor alpha upregulation in the female prostate (Skene’s paraurethral glands) of adult gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus)
Birth control pills increase certain receptor activities in female gerbil prostate glands and can lead to prostate changes.
research Effects of depot medroxyprogesterone acetate, the copper IUD and the levonorgestrel implant on testosterone, sex hormone binding globulin and free testosterone levels: ancillary study of the ECHO randomized clinical trial
The levonorgestrel implant increases free testosterone and lowers SHBG more than DMPA-IM and the copper IUD.
research [Clinical findings with a low-dosed antiandrogene (cyproteronacetate) and aethinyloestradiol women with virilising symptoms (author's transl)].
The treatment improved acne, seborrhoea, and hirsutism, with some side effects like spotting and nervousness.
research New Synthesis of Methyl 3β-Hydroxy-5-androstene-17β-carboxylate
A new method was developed to make a compound used in finasteride and epristeride with a 69% yield.
research Effect of Carbamates on mRNA Encoding Lipid Enzymes in Hamster Flank Organs
Carbamates may help treat androgen-dependent conditions by changing how certain lipid enzymes are produced.
research Investigation of the mechanisms of progesterone protection following oxygen–glucose deprivation in organotypic hippocampal slice cultures
Progesterone protects brain cells by converting to allopregnanolone and involving GABAA receptors.
research Screening of synthetic and natural product databases: Identification of novel androgens and antiandrogens
Researchers found new potential treatments for conditions related to the androgen receptor, like male hormonal contraception, by testing thousands of compounds.
research Respiratory regulation by steroids in newborn rats: a sex‐specific balance between allopregnanolone and progesterone receptors
Breathing in newborn rats is affected differently by hormones based on their sex.
research Neurosteroidogenesis Today: Novel Targets for Neuroactive Steroid Synthesis and Action and Their Relevance for Translational Research
New targets for making and using brain-synthesized steroids could lead to better treatments for brain disorders and alcoholism.
research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Prostaglandin D2 inhibits hair growth and is elevated in bald scalp of men with androgenetic alopecia.
A substance called prostaglandin D2 is found more in bald scalps and it stops hair from growing. Blocking its receptor could potentially treat hair loss.
research Androgens in female pig reproduction: actions mediated by the androgen receptor
Androgens may improve pig reproduction by enhancing ovulation and litter size.
research Promising alternative clinical uses of prostaglandin F2α analogs: Beyond the eyelashes
Prostaglandin F2α analogs show promise for treating certain types of hair loss but need more research for other skin conditions.
research LB1047 Comparative analysis of cutaneous hormonal profiles in pre-menopausal and post-menopausal women
Skin hormone levels change significantly after menopause.
research [Skin changes from taking hormonal contraceptives].
Taking hormonal contraceptives can cause skin changes, including hair loss, due to the effects of synthetic sex hormones.
research The effect of the antiandrogen IIα-hydroxyprogesterone on sebum production and cholesterol concentration of sebum
The antiandrogen 11α-hydroxyprogesterone effectively reduces skin oil and cholesterol when applied to the skin.
